About the neighbourhood

Demelza is an idyllic rural hamlet enjoying tranquility and beautiful countryside. It is situated between the towns of Wadebridge, Bodmin and St Austell and is well known for its local bridleways and footpaths through beautiful farmland and woodland, criss-crossed with streams that eventually form part of the river Camel. To the south is the popular Eden Project with its diverse bio domes, ice skating rink in the winter and year round music concerts. To the north are wonderful surfing beaches and the Camel Estuary whose waters are ideal for swimming, kayaking, windsurfing and sailing.

Getting around

You will need a car as there is no public transport from Demelza. Although the apartment seems to be off the beaten track, the A30 and A39 are easily accessible and quickly gets you to other areas of Cornwall.

From the A30 exit at Victoria and at the roundabout on the northern side of the A30 take the first exit towards Ruthernbridge/Withiel. Take the first left hand turn after only a few yards (signposted Timberstore) and then the next right hand turn, again after only a few yards (Past Withiel Container Hire). Follow this road into the countryside and after about 1 mile turn left at crossroads signed to Demelza (large milking barn on left, House of Fishes sign on right). After a further mile turn right at a t-junction and enter the hamlet of Demelza. Demelza Cottage will be found on the left hand side with its entrance drive a little further along. Knock on back door to be met by your hosts who will show you to the apartment.
